:)

For my blog. I have been changing the template so that our archives and facebook likes can be in the sidebar. In the widgets it says sidebar and i make sure to select sidebar. But for some reason its only showing up at the very bottom of our site.

We started with the Theme Balloons and we're now using SemPress. Why is it that this template seems to be taking on the Balloons format when we're trying to change what we do not like? What do I have to do in order for the sidebar to be the sidebar and not a footer. Remember. In widgets it says it is a sidebar. But its not.

Thanks for your help. Hopefully Someone may know the answer. I worry we have to delete and restart.

#branding {
background: url("URL OF IMAGE") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
}

#header {
background: url("URL OF IMAGE") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
}

I actually want the image in top left corner of page.

Again, please see the video tutorial at http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

I promise, the video will explain everything much better than I can over text.

You'll also need to add more to that menu, as you only have 2 Home links.

2. That actually only affected mobile viewers, not everyone. In this case, the only choice would be to switch to the mobile theme and have that option, or not use the mobile theme and display the full current theme along with the full posts.

I think I am having a hard time communicating as English is not my first language. I am not sure what other terms to use to describe this. Lets try again... Before I changed to this current theme, I had a theme where on the left hand side I had 4 LINKS (in one column, one under the other). (lets call them links this time to see if it is clear this time) The 4 links were: HOME, ABOUT JOURNALING, DREAMS FROM GOD, VISIONS FROM GOD. You could click on any of those links, but the HOME link took you back to all posts ever posted from newest to oldest.
Now I changed to this Theme or maybe I should say Template. Instead of these LINKS being on the left hand side, they are at the top underneath the name of my blog. They are in blue boxes at the top. You can see 3 blue boxes with the same names I gave you above, except there is a blue box missing with the name HOME. The problem is that if someone clicks on any of those 3 pages in the blue boxes, they can't get back to the MAIN PAGE where my posts are, from the newest post to the oldest. Timethief told me earlier to go create that link, but it is not putting a blue box there with the name HOME on it.
Maybe this is not possible at all, in that case I would go back to the theme I had before maybe. But if there is a way to create a this 4th LINK that can take my readers back to all posts I ever posted, I would love that. I was starting to think there is a way by what Timethief was saying. I am sure I am clear now? Thank you for your hard work, I am having a hard time explaining.

2. Just now, Where you told me to go, I noticed that I could change the appearance from showing the full post to showing it only in part. I Like that because I understood from Timethief last time that by clicking on a link to read further, it causes the stats to go up also. But when I made the changes, somehow it didn't affect the appearance. It stayed the same as before.

The theme will adapt on its own for smaller screens.

It is not possible to adjust the mobile theme.

Now, instead of the 4 menus I want it to display, It has added all categories as menu and I lost the 3 menu's I had originally.

There is only one menu. It is the whole bar. The only items that will display in any custom menu are the ones you choose to display in it. There are many common errors, misunderstandings and misconceptions when creating custom menus and you can read about them here > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2011/12/19/custom-menus/

In the instructions it told me to create a custom menu and then add the categories I want under that menu. If you take a look there are all catogories now as the menu. All I want to appear there is:
"All Posts", "About Journaling", "Dreams from God", "Visions from God". I will go in again and see what I did wrong and see if I can undo this. I just want each daily post to appear automatically on the main page with a menu "all posts" that people can click on in case they find themselves on a page, they have a way to get back to the posts by clicking on All Posts.

This particular template does not come with a "home" button as you can see.

Create a custom menu and you will find a ready made Home button.

re:like button use
The WordPress.com like button is an in-house like button. It's like every other in-house member use only like button, for example the Facebook like button. Only logged in WordPress.com bloggers can use the WordPress.com like button on WordPress.com blogs.

Also note likes and shares are misleading when you are talking about page view stats. Your followers and anyone with a WordPress.com blog who is logged into WordPress.com can "like" and "share" your posts in several locations such as the Reader without ever clicking into your blog and creating a page view stat.
